Definitions

  • Prosthetic heart valves are used to replace diseased natural heart valves in the aortic, mitral, tricuspid and pulmonary positions in the heart. Examples of such valves are shown in US-A-3714671, US-A-4.106129, US-A-4084268 and US-A-4192020. As shown by these patents, a prosthetic heart valve typically includes a frame formed of a wire or a shell valve and leaflets attached to the frame.
  • US-A-3714671 discloses a prosthetic heart valve having a frame made from three separate wires each being formed along a segment of a circular or elliptical cylindrical surface so that the assembled frame is generally circular or elliptical in shape though not lying in a single plane.
  • Each of the wire arcs has an upstanding portion at each end that blends into a line which is parallel to the axis of the cylinder and has an arcuately dipped intermediate portion.
  • Each wire is in line radially with an end of a succeeding wire and the ends of the wires are secured together by welding.
  • US-A-4106129 discloses a prosthetic heart valve having a wire frame composed of a single flexible wire preformed to define inverted U-shaped commissure supports merging smoothly with arcuate portions connecting such supports in which the two ends of the wire forming the frame are connected together along one of the arcuate connecting portions by means of a crimped sleeve or coupling.
  • the frame should allow maximum opening of the valve and to this end should have no sharp bends or kinks such as would reduce the valve opening or be incompatible with the tissue with which it will be in contact during use. Moreover, the frame should not have any sharp ends or corners that could damage the material of the valve.
  • the frame of US-A 3714671 has protruding ends of wires at the points where the three wires are joined. together.
  • joining together of the ends of the wire in a curved portion of the frame introduces difficulties. First, it is very difficult to crimp, without distortion, a sleeve that is bent to conform to the centre and if a straight sleeve is used to join two curved ends of wire, the wire must develop a kink where it enters the sleeve.
  • this invention provides a frame which the effects of such discontinuity are minimised by providing the join between two straight axially aligned portions of wire.
  • a frame for a prosthetic heart valve comprises:
  • each of the curved sections is preferably substantially elliptical as viewed in side elevation and forms a portion of an ellipse.
  • the frame can advantageously be constructed by a method which includes forming a wire into a generally flat pattern, with the wire having a plurality of curved sections joined by apical sections and with each of the apical sections including a reverse bend.
  • the apical sections extend in the same general direction, and the wire has opposite ends.
  • the flat pattern is then formed into an annular configuration, and the opposite ends of the wire are joined to retain the wire in the annular configuration.
  • the wire terminates in straight sections, which are preferably tangential to the associated reverse bend and the associated curved section, respectively.
  • the joining means can advantageously take the form of a splice.
  • the frame may be constructed of various biocompatible materials, such as suitable metals, plastics or composite fibrous materials.
  • suitable metals such as aluminum, copper, copper, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium magnesium
  • the wire frame of this invention can advantageously be used in a prosthetic heart valve according to EP-A-0086213.
  • Figure 1 shows a prosthetic heart valve 11 which generally comprises a frame 13 ( Figure 2), three identical valve leaflets 15,15a and 15b, and a suture ring 17.
  • the suture ring 17 is scalloped, and accordingly, the heart valve 11 is an aortic heat valve.
  • the valve leaflets 15, 15a and 15b may be of tissue or a synthetic material, such as film polytetrafluoroethylene.
  • the wire is formed into a flat pattern as shown in Figure 3.
  • the wire has commissure supports 19,21 and 23 integrally joined by curved sections 25, 27 and 29.
  • Each of the commissure supports is identical and extends in the same direction.
  • Each of the commissure supports 19, 21 and 23 may be considered as forming, or including, an apical section, each of which includes a reverse bend 31 and two tangents 33 joining the opposite ends of the associated reverse bend to the adjacent curved sections.
  • the wire terminates at opposite ends 35 and 37 in straight portions, which together form one of the tangents 33 of the commissure support 19.
  • Each of the tangents 33 is linear, and the tangents 33 of each of the commissure supports diverge as they extend away from the associated reverse bend 31.
  • Each of the curved sections 25, 27 and 29 is identical and preferably forms a part of an ellipse.
  • each of the curved sections 25, 27, 29 extends through 170 degrees
  • each of the reverse bends 31 is part circular and also extends through 170 degrees.
  • the included angle formed by an extension of the axes of the tangents 33 of each of the commissure supports thus may be, for example, 10 degrees. This specific dimensional data is given by way of illustration only, and the frame does not require these particular dimensions.
  • the flat pattern shown in Figure 3 contains no kinks or sharp bends.
  • the tangents 33 blend smoothly into the adjacent reverse bends and curved sections.
  • the curved sections 25, 27 and 29 and the reverse bends 31 themselves provide no kinks or sharp corners.
  • the fiat pattern of Figure 3 is formed into an annular, cylindrical configuration, and the opposite ends 35 and 37 are joined together in any suitable manner, such as by splicing, using a cylindrical sleeve 39.
  • the tangent 33 on which the sleeve 39 is carried may be considered as including tangent sections 41 and 43 which are spliced together by the sleeve 39.
  • the final step in constructing the frame 13 is to form the cylindrical annular configuration into a frusto-conical annular configuration as shown in Figures 2 and 7.
  • the commissure supports 19, 21 and 23 are inclined toward each other as they extend away from their associated curved sections 25,27 and 29.
  • the configuration of the frame 13 in Figure 2 is a frustum of a right circular cone with each of the commissure supports 19 being inclined radially inwardly at about 5 degrees.
  • the curved sections 25, 27 and 29 remain in an elliptical configuration as viewed in side elevation, the tangents 33 remain straight and the reverse bends 31 remain part circular.
  • the aspect ratio of the partial ellipses formed by the curved sections 25, 27 and 29 is altered somewhat.
  • the frame 13, including the commissure supports 19, 21 and 23, is resiliently flexible and can better accommodate shock loading.
  • Figures 4-6 illustrate how the wire frame 13 provides a smoothly curved contour at all locations along the frame, and in particular, along and adjacent the commissure support 23, it being understood that the commissure supports 19 and 21 are identical to the commissure support 23.
  • Figures 4-6 show the center line of the wire in line diagram form, and it can be seen that smooth curves exist in all three views.
  • Figure 4, which is a side elevational view, illustrates one half of the part elliptical configuration of the curved section 29.
